    I thought it was "A man in a kilt is a man and a half" but judging by the shopping cart you far exceed that. . Seriously I really like the blue it looks very good on you.

    Looks good. Don't know when I'd get a chance to wear such a shirt in FL.

    Definitely nice looking shirts. You stated these were made for you. Does that mean they are one off's, or is it possible others can purchase a shirt or two?

    This Lady & her husband are "old time" rendezvousers" & traders here in W.WA. As far as I know they do not sell any place other than at local rendezvous.
    Each year,@ the start of the rendendezvous season, I stop in & talk to her about what my needs are (shirts) for the season

    Here is a prior post of some shirts she has made for me http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/i...188/index.html
    Here is a picture me wearing one @ our Labor Day Rondy


    This year I took my kilts & asked what she could do about providig a couple shirts to match them for "daily" wear" ( Grey & Navy) As happens, she had just picked up some material from one Penelton's mills in the area ( here in the PNW we have several). GREY & Navy So I had her make up a couple for me.

    I understand that these are fairly easy to make (not by me) If you or a tailor are interested in where to find patterns or makers, contact me

    Okay, whew!!

    You DO have two legs...camera angle on the first one left doubt...

    And I love Pendleton fabrics, grew up near the mills in Oregon. You're lucky to have access to the seamstress. Sharp look for sure.
